way to some of the secluded -- secluded islands in the area. others were holding onto ice chests meant to hold the fish. those men got dehydrated while waiting to be rescued. the u.s. coast guard and the mexican navy searched for survivors for more than 36 hours. >> they conducted their search until they were the -- first crew reached their limit. second crew was flown out there via coast guard to meet them and then they got in the same helicopter and the new crew took the helicopter down and searched. >> the survivors are reported to be in good condition but as i said some were sunburned and many dehydrated since they spent more than 15 hours in the water. that one american passenger confirmed dead not yet identified. and those seven other passengers still missing. now, the mexican government thought of turning this into a recovery missing but after talking to the u.s. government

turned it back into a rescue mission because they believe some of the individuals are still alive. they continue the search. a locksmith is going down. they are cell phones, car keys, identification are in the water, long gone so they are there to help the survivors get back in their cars and make their ways safely back home. >> the good news is the weather conditions, the water, the seas, not as rough and cold as we would see say up here? >> reporter: absolutely. because that weather was warmer and there are better conditions that's part of the search. >> thank you, kristy seifkin. three brothers who survived say they aren't leaving until they find their fourth brother. the wife of 55-year-old brian wong of berkeley is still missing. he and his brothers gary, glen and craig have taken an annual fish trip to baja for years. they are experienced in

including bay point and pittsburg. plenty of fireworks around the bay area last night legal and illegal. these are the illegal kind in east oakland. as you can see, there were a -- they were a lot more elaborate than sparklers. they provided a light show on the ground, a lot of noise. the oakland fire department patroled neighborhoods last night looking for illegal fireworks. but most of their work on the 4th involved arriving on the scene where the damage had already been done. >> most of the events we go to on the 4th of july are trauma- related where children may blow their hands off or have an injury to face, eyes or things of that sort. the number two would probably be fires. >> firefighters tried to do their best to stop the illegal displays ahead of time, but they admit that does not always work. after the 4th of july, you have to go back to work. let's get you caught up with traffic and weather. lawrence, beautiful day yesterday. >> yeah. i think today even a little
